In this episode of Agency Business, Brian Wieser and Olivia Morley are joined by Jay Pattisall, vice president and principal analyst at Forrester, to discuss the biggest agency news of the year (and probably the decade): Omnicom’s acquisition of IPG.

- What the acquisition signals about the future of agency holding companies.
- How IPG’s media and creative operations might integrate into Omnicom’s structure.
- Why consolidation of brands seems likely, despite public assurances to the contrary.
The discussion also explores broader trends in the agency world, such as:
- The Forrester Wave for media and creative agencies.
- Intelligent creativity—where AI and advertising services intersect.
- How agencies are incorporating technology into their service models to create new revenue opportunities.
